Sunglasses

It can be difficult to complete activities outside with the sun glaring into your eyes. Fortunately, sunglasses provide a layer of comfort, protection, and even style to your everyday wardrobe. Using them can benefit your eyes, and they can be made to easily fit over your face and fit your lifestyle! You can use sunglasses that are custom-made for your specific needs, can help you see clearly in any weather, and can help give you a boost of confidence.

At Wight Eye Care, we are here to tick all these boxes by providing sunglasses offered by our optometrist in Loves Park, IL. We are here to help our clients look their best and see their best with a pair of sunglasses. If you're interested in purchasing a pair or want to know how to get right ones for your needs, read on below to find out more.

What Are Sunglasses Used For? 

Sunglasses can do much more than help you look cool. Indeed, sunglasses are both a fashion statement, as well as a statement on eye health. Every day, the sun beats down ultraviolet rays, also known as UV rays, onto our skin, and onto our eyes.

This constant exposure to UV light can have major negative effects on our eye health, including early macular degeneration, skin cancer, photokeratitis caused by too much sun exposure, and even the formation of cataracts.

Fortunately, a good pair of sunglasses can help protect your eyes from these conditions, as well as help you complete your outfit. In addition, sunglasses can also be made to fit your prescription, meaning they can help you see clearly while also shielding your eyes from harmful UV light.

How Can an Optometrist Choose the Best Sunglasses For Me?

Our optometrist can conduct an eye exam to help determine the best prescription for your eyes. He can do this through vision tests, dilating your eyes and getting a deeper look inside of the structure of your eye, and asking you questions about your vision.

After you obtain a prescription, you can then choose a pair of sunglasses that matches your style, coincides with your daily activities (such as playing sports, exercising, or driving), and improves your vision! Our optometrist on our optometry team may also want to conduct follow-up tests to determine if your prescription is working.
